- Gametangia
- conidiospore
- Exospores
- Endospores
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Asexual reproduction in fungi takes place by conidia, zoospores, aplanospores, etc. Conidia (also known as conidiospores) are non-motile, thin-walled exogenously produced spores on a conidiophore either singly as in Pythium, Phytophthora or in chains upon the conidiophore, e.g., Aspergillus and Penicillium. The tip of the conidiophore is spherical and gives out a number of peg-like branches, sterigmata bearing chains of conidia.

Biological Classification
The process of grouping living organisms into categories is called biological classification. The most modern 5-kingdom classification was put ahead by an eminent scientist R.H.Whittaker. The five-kingdom classification is based on the criteria like cell structure, mode of nutrition, body form, and reproduction. One of the most important characteristics of this system is that it follows the evolutionary sequence of living organisms. The organisms are classified into distinct taxa or levels like Kingdom, Phylum, Division, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. The 5 kingdoms are as follows:
